Save Anna Centenary Library
The Anna Centenary Library, established in 2010, has since been threatened by closure, by conversion into a hospital, and by use of its public space and auditorium for unrelated activities such as a wedding reception, a result of what is apparently a political and administrative tussle. That events have come to such a pass in Tamil Nadu is ironic, for it was here that the first Public Libraries Act of independent India was enacted in 1948.
The Library with no members - The Hindu
The Anna Centenary Library in Chennai is wasting its resources, say users and administrators.
This library, built at a cost of Rs 172 crore, is the first in Asia to get the gold rating on Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design from Indian Green Building Council and is said to be South Asia’s largest.
